D’Aguilar and Bruce HWY to be stabilised
Somerset Council will recommence pavement stabilisation works on the Brisbane Valley Highway and D’Aguilar Highway between February and April 2025.
Council was contracted by the Department of Transport and Main Roads to undertake the pavement stabilisation work, which began in late 2024 but was delayed due to wet weather and the Christmas break.
Pavement stabilisation on the Brisbane Valley Highway will start in late February and is expected to take about three weeks to complete, weather permitting. This work will cover a 6km stretch between Chaille Road, Esk, and McGraths Road, Moombra.
D’Aguilar Highway work will begin in late March and take about four weeks to complete, weather permitting. This work will cover a 20km stretch between the western access to Nurinda Road, Colinton, and Funkners Lane, Woolmar.
Somerset Mayor Jason Wendt explained that pavement stabilisation involves repairing and patching large areas of the road, which is vital for reducing the costs involved with routine maintenance.
The work will take place from 6 am to 6 pm, Monday to Friday.
